Happy New Year!

We would like to wish a very happy new year to all Kiva.org lenders, borrowers, supporters, partners and volunteers!

Together we have created something quite extraordinary, uplifting, dignifying and empowering. We've made the world a little bit smaller and extended "helping hands" that reach as far as Manhattan to Mozambique. We've introduced ourselves to each other with pictures and profiles, and created a network of over 20,000 people around the globe.

In San Francisco, the Kiva.org team is looking forward to see where you will take us in 2007. We will continue to build an easy-to-use website with features that increase your ability to connect, and partner with more organizations to give Kiva Lenders more lending options. The rest... is up to you!
